THE SHORT HAUL.

One of the objects of the Inter
State Commerce law was to pre-
vent excessive charges by the
railroad companies, for short dis
tances. 1t was presumed that the
long haul could take care of itself
but it does not seem able to do so,
and the sh ort haul is catching what
Paddy gave the drum, while the
long haul is getting the same thing
only more so.
AS matter of fact the railroads
with their customary inscriptions
ness have increased their rates all
along for both long and short dis
tances. Their object is clearly to
to make the law odious, but they
are overreaching hemselves, and
making themselves odious instead.
They will drive every state into
having a railroad commission, and
it will be a commission that will
be disposed to be aggressive to-
wards the railroads, and that will
force some justice from them.
The ", S. d p, with its usual
grasping miserlyness, displayed
no hesitation in getting out a new
tariff,and stood prepared to advano e
the rates, the very day the new
law went into effect. There was
no red tape about that. They
jumped at it like a trout at a min
now, and they have about succeed
in making shipments by rail to
Tallulah prohibitory.
The shortest way out of the diff
ficulty, and the easiest is to build
by private enterprise, railway to
Millikens Bend. A home railway.
One that is intended TO be a ben eft
to this community, and having for
its object the saving Of money to
this section instead of a concern
like the w., S. & p, whose object
appears to be to make itself gen.
orally hated, and at the same time,
to wiring from its unhappy victims,
the last dollar that can by any
possibility be extracted from them.
Let us have railway to the Bend,
or a freight line, by which we can
get our goods hauled.

Henry George,s Fatal Rlnnder.

Mr.. Henry George has demonstrated to
the satisfaction Of all thinking persons,
that he is not fit man 10 lead any move
ment for the regeneration Of labor. He
seems to be afflicted with bad temper or
bad Judgment but whatever the explana-
tion, he is wofully lacking in the qualities
of leadership. He has deliberately pro-
voked quarrel with the Catholic church
over the McGlynn case, and devotes nine
columns of the first issue of his paper, the
Stdnddrd, TO repetition Of all the stale
lies that have been told agaist that church
since its institution. in the second
issue of the paper, he charges that
Archbishop Corrigan, of New YORK,
not only wanted to defeat in the last cleo
ton certain candidate, but also labored
to defeat the call for constitutional con-
vention; to both of which broad allega.
ticns the ecclesiastic returns prompt de-
NAL. The burden is now upon Mr.. George
to prove his charges, a task which he viii
scarcely attempt.
1t Is painful to see man of the confessed
ability of Henry George develop into th'
| common demagogue. So long as he de
Tended his peculiar theories in pleasing
| forceful oratory, he was most interestin
parsonage but now that he openly al
tempts to array the laboring people of tn
country against the Catholic church, b
merits prompt suppression. If he wer
running for mayor of New York to-day, b
| would not get one-fifth Of the votes pole,
for him last November.
He has made fatal error in the religion
war he is trying to foment. So think
John Swinton, and such also is the opinion
of Michael Davitt, two of Georges closes
friends. The New York labor agitato
has passed his zenith. His followers ar

from San francisco, that are taken through
Il to New Orleans for slo; and no sophistry
win wipe out this damning inequality.
The bill before Congress proposes to limit
the railroad power in this regard 30 that
FL Paso cannot be charged more than slo,
IL New Orleans is charged no more. The
result will be 70 raise New Orleans freight
and lower Ell Paso rates and II the conse-
quence should be that the Southern Pacific
railroad of Senator Stanford is not able to
compete in through traffic with the Ian
anna route, that route will do the business,
as it is entitled TO do IL by reason OF its
superior natural advantage.
It is not the business of Congress TO leg
islate 80 that dsadvantageously situated
railroads shall be able to compete success
fully for through traffic. If the Pennsyl-
railroad has natural advantage in carry
ing freight as shorter line, it is entitled
to its value, and the New York Central as
a larger line must stand aside.
